New, Improved Photos to Come!

I am very excited. Over the weekend I ordered a "real camera". I will be able to take and post photos that are much improved compared to the ones on here so far. I can hardly wait!

Debbie was in town over the weekend. Carol and I went to Rose's last evening and the four of us ate pizza and, of course, stitched. Debbie, as always, had lots of fun things for show and tell. One of her WIPs is Loose Feathers...Number 24, I think. It is darling. It is a real cute house, birds, and a message about feeding the birds. I would love to stitch that one some day. Rose made a pea pod for Debbie - one of Lauren Sauer's little projects...really cute. She then started on her surprise 2010 Valentine for David. SHHH...don't tell! Carol worked on a cute little blue house. The design is Sweet Liberty from Marking Sampler. She plans to use this piece in an upcoming class on making projects into self-standing box type forms, rather than framing. Can't wait to see how that turns out. I am still working on finishing Carol's Christmas gift - the two pineapple biscornus from Jeanette Douglas. I'm getting close now!

Hope all of you have chosen some wonderful and fun projects to try to complete this year.

SORRY I COULDN'T MAKE THE PARTY, I AM IN FINISHING MODE. MY PINEAPPLES ARE COMPLETE! SEE THEM AT WRSG. ALSO WORKING ON ELLEN'S DITTY BOX-HEDEBOS FOR FISH AND ATTACHING THE BAND INSIDE-THEN COMPLETE! MY FRIEND AT WORK SAID HER HUSBAND COULD MAKE THE TIN FRAMES-LIKE THE BB CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT. I'LL BRING TO WRSG TOO LZ

Linda - Looking forward to seeing you Thursday. It seems like forever. It definitely has been forever since I've been to WRSG! I think I'd be interested in the frame for the BBD ornament. I'm anxious to see your finished piece.
